Question

An important role of the nurse caring for children and their families is that of child advocate. Which intervention best reflects this role?

Teaching parents the proper way to administer insulin to their child. Accurately documenting and reporting client conditions. Administering medications to clients on a timely basis. Working to change agency policy to better serve families.

Answer 1

The intervention that best reflects the role of a child advocate is **working to change agency policy to better serve families**. Advocacy involves representing the needs and interests of children and their families, which includes influencing policies and practices to improve care and outcomes for them. While the other interventions are important aspects of nursing care, they primarily focus on direct care and education rather than advocating for systemic changes.
